Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) . Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with silicone liners.
Step 2: Cook the Sausage and Veggies
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add the sausage and cook until browned and crumbled, about 5–7 minutes. Drain excess grease if needed.
Stir in the spinach and bell peppers . Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted and the peppers are softened. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3: Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs , milk , salt , pepper , and garlic powder (if using) until smooth and well combined.
Step 4: Assemble the Mini Quiches
If using a pie crust or puff pastry, cut it into circles slightly larger than the muffin tin cups. Press each circle into the greased muffin cups to form a crust. (Skip this step if making crustless quiches.)
Divide the cooked sausage mixture evenly among the muffin cups.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the sausage mixture.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over each cup, filling them about 3/4 full.
Step 5: Bake the Quiches
Bake for 18–22 minutes , or until the quiches are puffed, golden brown, and set in the center.
Let the quiches cool in the pan for 5 minutes before carefully transferring them to a wire rack.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Serve warm or at room temperature.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
